Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2921.49Lower: 16.5% vs 35%

If imported primarily as amine-function compound without emphasizing sulfur

Amine derivatives may classify under 2921 if sulfur not principal function per classification notes

2935Lower: 16.5% vs 35%

If containing additional heteroatoms beyond S-C linkage

Organo-inorganic compounds with other nonmetals classify in 2935 if not purely organo-sulfur

3204.16.30.00Higher: 41.5% vs 35%

If for reactive dyes produced from this intermediate

Chapter 29 excludes finished synthetic dyes, directing to heading 3204
